General Purpose Cables
Our General Purpose Cables utilize high-conductivity copper or aluminum wires, ensuring minimal electrical resistance and high transmission efficiency. The selection of materials is optimized for various environments, with copper used for its superior conductivity in critical applications. At the same time, aluminum is employed for its lightweight and cost-effective benefits in less demanding environments. The copper conductors are often annealed to increase flexibility, reducing the risk of brittle fractures during installation and handling.

Technical Advantages
These cables are constructed with reinforced designs to withstand mechanical stresses, including abrasion, impact, and torsional strain. The outer jacket is typically made of materials like PVC, PE (Polyethylene), or rubber compounds that resist oils, acids, and weathering. For applications requiring flexibility, multi-strand conductors are employed, ensuring the cables remain operational even under tight bends or repeated flexing. The cables are designed to meet mechanical stress standards, such as IEC 60228 and IEC 60332, ensuring long-term performance in dynamic applications.
Some general-purpose cables come with built-in shielding to mitigate electromagnetic interference, particularly in environments with high-frequency equipment. This can include braided copper shields, aluminum foils, or combinations of both, depending on the required protection level. Shielding ensures the integrity of signals in communication systems or sensitive electrical installations while also minimizing the impact of external noise on your systems.
Voltage Drop and Power Loss Efficiency
The cables’ design minimizes voltage drop during transmission, which is critical for maintaining system efficiency, especially in long-distance power distribution. The low-resistance conductors and high-quality insulation materials contribute to lower power loss, ensuring that more energy reaches the destination without unnecessary dissipation. For installations with critical power efficiency, cables are sized appropriately to balance current-carrying capacity and minimize energy loss.
With the increasing use of smart systems and IoT (Internet of Things) devices in industrial and commercial environments, our General Purpose Cables are designed to be compatible with data transmission systems. They support low-frequency signaling and can be integrated with sensors, actuators, and other smart components, ensuring seamless operation in automated environments.
